Very tempting. But why should farmers get diesel cheaper than us. Dont they get enough money from the EU?
Sussex.
sometimes you amaze me with your lack of thought!
the reason why farmers get cheaper fuel is two fold.
1. because the majority of time its used on private land, thier own so no no duty is payable as no one could enter to prosecute anyway.
2. they are producing food and so they are faciliated.
if private hire drivers never went on public roads they could use red diesel too!
